Hi Oscar,
your example looks very good - great to see that there are some guitarist out
there using lilypond!
Just a short remark about bar 4: the letter "p" is somewhat misplaced and
looks like an uppercase "P", this is AFAIK a problem concerning the alignment
of letters in lilypond, which are not aligned at the baseline. But I didn't
find any solutions or workarounds (yet).
Generally, I would use the \small sizes of p, i, m, a and x throughout - I
think they look better in combination with the \ltoe/\rtoe signs.
